A Bishop surface with a vanishing Bishop invariant

Abstract

We derive a complete set of invariants for a formal Bishop surface near a point of complex tangent with a vanishing Bishop invariant under the action of formal transformations. We prove that the modular space of Bishop surfaces with a vanishing Bishop invariant and with a fixed Moser invariant $s<\infty$ is of infinite dimension. We also prove that the equivalence class of the germ of a generic real analytic Bishop surface near a complex tangent with a vanishing Bishop invariant can not be determined by a finite part of the Taylor expansion of its defining equation. This answers, in the negative, a problem raised by J. Moser in 1985 after his joint work with Webster in 1983 and his own work in 1985.

Hilbert metric and quasiconformal mappings

We prove a functional identity between the Hilbert metric and the visual angle metric in the unit disk. The proof utilizes the Poincaré hyperbolic metric in terms of which both metrics can be expressed. This identity then yields sharp distortion results for quasiregular mappings and analytic functions, expressed in terms of the Hilbert metric. We also prove that Hilbert circles are, in fact, Euclidean ellipses. The proof makes use of computer algebra methods. In particular, Gröbner bases are used.

Cyclicity in Poletsky-Stessin Weighted Bergman Spaces

We study the cyclicity of polynomials in Poletsky-Stessin weighted Bergman spaces on various domains in $\mathbb{C}^2$, including the unit ball, the bidisk, and the complex ellipsoid. To this end, we introduce a natural extension of the parameter range for Poletsky-Stessin weighted Bergman spaces on complete Reinhardt domains, yielding a family of spaces that resemble Dirichlet-type spaces on the unit ball. We highlight the differences in the cyclicity behavior of polynomials in these spaces on the bidisk compared to those studied by Bénéteau et al. Finally, we propose several open problems concerning the structure of cyclic polynomials in these spaces.

Schwarz-contractivity of the Poisson operator

We say that the Poisson operator $P_r$ is Schwarz-contractive from a space $X$ to a space $Y$ if $\|P_r\|_{X\to Y}\le r$ holds for all $0<r<1$. The classical Schwarz lemma is the case $H^\infty_0\to H^\infty$, the subscript indicating zero mean. We are concerned with the non-holomorphic case $L^\infty_0 \to L^p$. For real functions Schwarz-contractivity holds up to the sharp exponent $p_{\mathbb R}=4.109\ldots$. For complex functions we prove it for $p\le 3$ and conjecture that the critical exponent is $4$.
